Glitch Photography - Sabato Visconti


The photograph shown above shows that the original photograph which the photographer captured has been significantly edited, glutting the photograph. The photograph shown above makes it impossible to figure out the original photograph due to how edited it is. The process in which the photograph has used is data bending which allows the photograph to be edited within programs such as Audacity - a sound file editing software. Therefore importing this photograph to an audio editing program this will change the appearance of the photograph as this clearly isn't suited for audio editing programs. The photograph contains a very broad colour palette due to how edited the photograph is, however the colour of the original photograph may have impacted this. The colours for this photograph are often repeated throughout, especially blue, pink and yellow. The different tones for these colours have also been created, further repeating the colours however this has prevented the exact same colour being used repeatedly throughout. It is also evident that the top half of the photograph is remarkably brighter than the bottom half, this shows that white hasn't been replaced with grey and black in the bottom half. As well as this the photograph allows uses a geometric pattern which is repeated throughout this is made up of squares and rectangles. This allows the different titles to overlap one another, creating different colours for the tiles due to them being overlapped.


This photograph hasn't been extremely edited, thus allowing the audience to identify the original image. This appears to be of houses located within a street which have been taken from different angles. By studying the photograph clearly it appears that more than one photograph has been taken, thus allowing the artist to combine the different photographs before editing them to a glitch effect. The colour palette for this photograph uses several different colours, the main colours being green and red. These are repeated throughout the photograph, giving a slightly limited colour palette, especially when comparing this photograph to the first photograph found within this post. The colours used mix together which allows other colours to be created such as purple and yellow, expanding the colour palette. This photograph also contains geometric shapes such as rectangles and squares due to the subject matter, houses, resulting in windows. The photograph also appears to be slightly grainy, giving the photograph an older looking appearance.


This photograph focuses on being successful in terms of colour as it shows the photograph uses a broad colour palette. The colours are constantly repeated throughout the photograph with the main colour being pink followed by purple, green and blue. The photograph also concentrates on the pattern formed, this contains the geometric shapes, squares and rectangles. The photograph has been significantly edited therefore it is impossible to figure out the original photograph.
